One card is drawn at random from a pack of 52 cards. What is the probability that the card drawn is a face card ?
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer:
Option
A
Clearly, there are 52 cards, out of which there are 12 face cards 4 jack, 4 queens, and 4 kings
∴ P (getting a face card) $$ = \frac{{12}}{{52}}$$ $$ = \frac{3}{{13}}$$
∴ P (getting a face card) $$ = \frac{{12}}{{52}}$$ $$ = \frac{3}{{13}}$$

LoginSince there are 12 face cards in a deck of 52 cards
Therefore= 12/52 = 3/13.
Since there are 12 face cards in a deck of 52 cards (face cards are J, Q and K).
Therefore, P(getting a face card) = 12/52 = 3/13.
